I have gone into security settings and enabled lock screen widgets. This allows me to add DashClock widget to the lockscreen, however, I am unable to remove the default weather/clock widget from the lock screen. "Remove" is greyed out and the only option when you grab it is to "edit" it. DashClock works fine and I can remove it like normal.
This wouldn't be too big of a deal but it won't let me move the default to a different screen, its locked to page one so to get to DashClock I have to swipe.. Well, if I have to swipe its pretty pointless to have lockscreen widgets, I can just swipe to unlock the phone and have my widget on my homescreen.
I was able to take some screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about - I'm "new" so I can't post the link but try this: imgur.com/a/oCfVt
I was unable to find a way myself. I've been using this lock screen app instead https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidelock
Really nice. Lots off features.

Has anyone found a solution to this?
Only way to do is ..
The only way to hide/disable the stock HTC weather/clock widget is if you have rooted devices with installed Xposed Framework. There is a module called "Sense 6 Lockscreen Modes" where you have an option to remove/hide the widget, in that way being able to have any other widget on your main lockscreen !
I researched about this a lot, and the most covenantway to disable/hide the widget was to apply this module, plus you can have it back any time you want, just by disabling that module!

In case you have not noticed - the Sense 3.0 Lockscrren on out Sensations now has additional functionality.
To unlock the phone you drag the grey circle upwards. But you can also tap and drag one of the 4 icons (phone, mail, web, camera) and move them into the middle of the circle and you then jump right to that function.
I find that kinda neat, and of couse it opens the question - can we add custom icons / apps to this quicklauncher and if so how is this done?
Also, there seems to be a reproducible bug with the camera, at least in my phone. When I launch it likedescribed above it starts the camera app (i see the stuff the cam ispointing at in the display) but it lacksallof the control buttons. Is this hapening with your versions too or isitmaybe already fixed?
You're kidding, right?

In such a case, go to settings and change your lockscreen shortcuts

Personalize -->Lock screen-->go to the lock screen you want and choose settings - tap app icon to change shortcuts
I was laughing at this then realized I have a question about the lockscreen too! Don't wanna start a new thread. So when you have an alternate launcher, you lose the ability to access the "personalize" section of the settings, which is where you change the lockscreen icons and ****. Now, to change the lockscreen type or icons, I need to disable Launcher Pro's defaults and use the Sense launcher. I don't change it often, so no biggie. But is there a way to change the lockscreen outside of the Sense launcher?

tj - just pull down the notification bar and go to all settings - personalize is at the top then mod your lockscreen
the only settings available is the htc modified version - thats why car home is blacklisted because if you try to pull up settings it crashes - doesn't care for the HTC version

See, with Launcher Pro at least, when I hit that Personalize button it just closes settings and throws me back to the homescreen. No FC or anything, I just go to my homescreen. Can anyone with an alternate launcher confirm this behavior for me? Is it just Launcher Pro, or maybe even just my device?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
okay i see what you mean
zeam and launcher pro do the same thing if you select them to open personalize
you have to use sense to launch personalize
if you don't get prompted to choose between lpro and sense when you click personalize just clear the launcher pro defaults and next time you can choose sense. shouldnt make that big of a deal since sense will just get dropped once youre back in launcher pro
I have the camera bug also...
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
from what i can pull out of the OP's message, I think he was saying a bug where the lock screen will show the icons and background but also be displaying the image from the camera.
I first noticed this when I was using Barcode Scanner, left the app running, locked the phone, and then hit the unlock button. the normal lock screen would appear faded and then the live camera image. pretty cool looking i think
I can reproduce this
Almost got it with anycut - create a shortcut by long pressing the screen from whatever launcher you want then choose activity - scroll down and choose the second personalize listed - there should be three. the lock screen settings are there and load fine without crashing only problem is that your lockscreen will change to a theme but the icons on the lockscreen don't switch. I think if you tried out all thet settings options in anycut you could do it.
I'm running a (more or less) stock / unrooted AT&T Skyrocket. I upgraded from the Infuse 4G. It was easy to remove the lock screen wallpaper on it, as it was simply done by setting lock screen wallpaper to none. The option isn't on the Skyrocket. Is there a way to remove the lock screen wallpaper (So live wallpaper is shown) without running a second locker?
I tried Go Locker, and occasionally it would cause me to have to unlock 2 screens... I'd prefer not to fix one problem by creating another. Any help is greatly appreciated...and yes I searched but no one has asked this before.
Menu... Settings... Display.... Screen Display... Lockscreen Wallpaper. You can set to various Wallpaper Gallery images or image in your Gallery. I'm on 2.3.6 so not sure if this option exists on 2.3.5 guessing it does as well.
Do what the Guy says above. If you're like me and can't stand the stock lockscreen swipe, try widget locker... really nice customizable lockscreen app. You can completely customize the lockscreen. Slider style, wallpaper brighthtness and all.
And it disables the stock lockscreen.

I want the lock screen, I use the pattern lock.
I want to REMOVE the wallpaper. I want the lock screen translucent like it was on my infuse. The option to set a gallery image is there. But the "none" option is missing.

I suppose maybe I should pay someone to create an app that does this.
Search for transparent lock screen zip
I know it exists...it is on most of the T-Mobile roms

Hi,
I'm pretty new to android, but after some searching I can't find this application.
I am after an app which will change my lockscreen image after "x" minutes. I have the "Wallpaper Changer" app which works well for the wallpaper, but it doesn't affect the lockscreen.
What app's can anyone recommend? is "LockerPro Lockscreen" worth a try?
Thanks
You can use: "go locker ex" . Multiple background for everything you want. I can also recommend "Go launcher EX", which is an app where you can download multiple themes for your app, like IOs, glass, maya and uncoutable others (btw automaticly changing pictures or moving backgrounds will drown your battery VERY fast, just sayin

There are so many apps in play store but Go locker is best safe and trustworthy.
Go locker, smooth and customizable

Ok Thanks I'll try GoLocker.
You mentioned auto changing lock screen images drain battery. My plan is for just 2 or 3 changes per day. Would that affect the battery much?
Go Locker and Lock Screen Pro don't seem to have the option for time lock screen image changes. Am I missing something?
Ok so I've got Go locker and Lock screen pro but none seem to have the option for time lock screen image changes. Am I missing something?
Title says it all... Basically, I want to remove/disable lockscreen widgets, (which is an option in many ROMS), however use a custom widget (instead of the standard clock)... get it?
I tried replacing the standard widget, then disable all widgets... however, unfortunately that brings backs the main clock lockscreen widget.
Anyway

Dont disable lockscreen widgets. Just add your custom widget and delete the page with stock widget , thats it

I was wondering the same thing
Hi,
Is there any way to personalize the lockscreen (withou installing a new lockscreen app)?
I'm having issues with the meteorology app, beacuse it is always requesting GPS.
Or is there a way to stop the meteorology app from using GPS and just use a city choose by me?
I don't want it accessing the GPS all the time. I've already took it away from the homescreen but I haven't found a way to take it from the lockscreen.
Question 1, no not without installing another launcher. The icons on the LockScreen are the ones on the Dock.
Question 2, I would check in the Meterology App Settings, something along the lines of Location, Default home or something like that. Hard to tell when no one knows exactly which app you are referring to. Most likely look in Settings.
Hi,
Thanks for the answer and sorry for not being explicit.
I was talking about the weather app that comes with the phone.
If I add a new widget from that app to the homescreen I can choose a specific city but the widget on the lockscreen keeps updating using GPS.
If i use another weather app on the homescreen, the one on the lockscreen will not change and it will still be the one that came with the phone.

Basically the same applies. Go into Weather app, Menu(3 dots), Settings and unclick Auto detect my location.
It was the first thing I did!
